    Abstract The cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase (PKA) is an elementary molecule involved in both acute and chronic modulation of cardiac function. Substantial research in recent years has highlighted the importance of A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAP) therein as they act as the backbones of major macromolecular signalling complexes of the β-adrenergic/cAMP/PKA pathway. This review discusses the role of AKAP-associated protein complexes in acute and chronic cardiac modulation by dissecting their role in altering the activity of different ion channels, which underlie cardiac action potential (AP) generation. In addition, we review the involvement of different AKAP complexes in mechanisms of cardiac remodelling and arrhythmias.

    Abstract Aims: Synchronous beating of the heart is dependent on the efficient functioning of the cardiac intercalated disk (ID). The ID is composed of a complex protein network enabling electrical continuity and chemical communication between individual cardiomyocytes. Recently, several different studies have shed light on increasingly prevalent cardiac diseases involving the ID. Insufficient knowledge of its composition makes it difficult to study these disease mechanisms in more detail and therefore here we aim expand the ID proteome. Here, using a combination of general membrane enrichment, in-depth quantitative proteomics and an intracellular location driven bioinformatics approach, we aim to discover new putative ID proteins in rat ventricular tissue.
    Methods and results: General membrane isolation, enriched amongst others also with ID proteins as based on presence of the established markers connexin-43 and n-cadherin, was performed using centrifugation. By mass spectrometry, we quantitatively evaluated the level of 3455 proteins in the enriched membrane fraction (EMF) and its counterpart, the soluble cytoplasmic fraction. These data were stringently filtered to generate a final set of 97 enriched, putative ID proteins. These included Cx43 and n-cadherin, but also many interesting novel candidates. We selected 4 candidates (Flotillin-2 (FLOT2), Nexilin (NEXN), Popeye-domain-containg-protein 2 (POPDC2) and thioredoxin-related-transmembrane-protein 2 (TMX2)) and confirmed their co-localization with n-cadherin in the ID of human and rat heart cryo-sections, and isolated dog cardiomyocytes.
    Conclusion: The presented proteomics dataset of putative new ID proteins is a valuable resource for future research into this important molecular intersection of the heart.

    Abstract We have recently described the chronic renocardiac syndrome (CRCS) in rats with renal failure, cardiac dysfunction and low nitric oxide (NO) availability by combining subtotal nephrectomy and transient low-dose NO synthase (NOS) inhibition. Cardiac gene expression of the neuronal isoform of NOS (nNOS) was induced. Hence, we studied the role of nNOS, in vivo cardiac function and β-adrenergic response in our CRCS model by micromanometer/conductance catheter. Left ventricular (LV) hemodynamics were studied during administration of dobutamine (dobu), the highly specific irreversible inhibitor of nNOS L-VNIO [L-N5-(1-Imino-3-butenyl)-ornithine], or both at steady state and during preload reduction. Rats with CRCS showed LV systolic dysfunction at baseline, together with prolonged diastolic relaxation and rightward shift of the end-systolic pressure-volume relationships. After L-VNIO infusion, diastolic relaxation of CRCS rats further prolonged. The time constant of active relaxation (tau) increased by 25 ± 6% from baseline (p < 0.05), and the maximal rate of pressure decrease was 36 ± 7% slower (p < 0.001). These variables did not change in controls. In our CRCS model, nNOS did not seem to affect systolic dysfunction. In summary, in this model of CRCS, blockade of nNOS further worsens diastolic dysfunction and L-VNIO does not influence inherent contractility and the response to dobu stress.

    Abstract Here we reveal that the characterization of large-scale re-arrangements of signaling scaffolds induced by heart failure can serve as a novel concept to identify more specific therapeutic targets. In the mammalian heart, the cAMP pathway, with the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) in a central role, acts directly downstream of adrenergic receptors to mediate cardiac contractility and rhythm. Heart failure, characterized by severe alterations in adrenergic stimulation is, amongst other interventions, often treated with β-blockers. Contrasting results, however, have shown both beneficial and detrimental effects of decreased cAMP levels in failing hearts. We hypothesize that the origin of this behavior lies in the complex spatiotemporal organization of the regulatory subunit of PKA (PKA-R), which associates tightly with various A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs) to specifically localize PKA's activity. Using chemical proteomics directly applied to human patient and control heart tissue we demonstrate that the association profile of PKA-R with several AKAPs is severely altered in the failing heart, for instance effecting the interaction between PKA and the novel AKAP SPHKAP was 6-fold upregulated upon failing heart conditions. Also a significant increase in captured cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) and phosphodiesterase 2 (PDE2) was observed. The observed altered profiles can already explain many aspects of the aberrant cAMP-response in the failing human heart, validating that this dataset may provide a resource for several novel, more specific, treatment options. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled "Local Signaling in Myocytes".

    Abstract Sinus node dysfunction (SND) is a major public health problem that is associated with sudden cardiac death and requires surgical implantation of artificial pacemakers. However, little is known about the molecular and cellular mechanisms that cause SND. Most SND occurs in the setting of heart failure and hypertension, conditions that are marked by elevated circulating angiotensin II (Ang II) and increased oxidant stress. Here, we show that oxidized calmodulin kinase II (ox-CaMKII) is a biomarker for SND in patients and dogs and a disease determinant in mice. In wild-type mice, Ang II infusion caused sinoatrial nodal (SAN) cell oxidation by activating NADPH oxidase, leading to increased ox-CaMKII, SAN cell apoptosis, and SND. p47-/- mice lacking functional NADPH oxidase and mice with myocardial or SAN-targeted CaMKII inhibition were highly resistant to SAN apoptosis and SND, suggesting that ox-CaMKII-triggered SAN cell death contributed to SND. We developed a computational model of the sinoatrial node that showed that a loss of SAN cells below a critical threshold caused SND by preventing normal impulse formation and propagation. These data provide novel molecular and mechanistic information to understand SND and suggest that targeted CaMKII inhibition may be useful for preventing SND in high-risk patients.
